I hope you are kidding. Or maybe you dont know much about the Germans during World War 2.

I know they committed genocide on a mass scale. Just like the countries I listed.

Thats true, but I was talking about the massive army of the germans and how it made them feel they could invade other countries without anyone being able to stop them.
As much as I find the death penalty an odious tool and immoral, it is still the independent right of the United States of America to determined its own method for dealing with criminals.
No nation or international organisation should not be imposing an unelected dictorial power over anyone.
Anyways, the World Court is a toothless tiger. Most of the nations signed up to the Court pay no attention to the regulation and directives issued.

But yes, the US is not committing genocide against its own population like many of the countries you mentioned are, while the world ignores it.
Germany began by invading it's neighbors. Much like Mexico is invading the US.

Well that's 50% right. Its a big thing. Its sovereignty vs Human Rights.
3) There should be one answer. There is not one set of Human Rights for one country and one for another. Human Rights as a concept sits above the concept of sovereignty.
Please draw the parallel for me. I can't see it.

A convicted criminal gives up certain human rights. That's why capital punishment is fair...the murderer has taken away all human rights from the victim, so therefore should forfeit all his rights.
